    This restaurant got great vibes! All the dish were so delicious. My favorite was the Iberian pork with potatoes. The sauce on the side was made with wine, goes perfect with the pork! Pork was grilled juicy and tender. Remember to make your reservation when you go. It get crowded at dinner!

    Want some Spanish sunshine? Come to Vinomania, where you can taste tapas and other Spanish specialties, taste tinto de verano and taste quite a few wines! The service is very friendly and relaxed. The place is accommodating for groups but has small areas for those who would like a little more privacy.

    Very good! Drinks are good as well. Very friendly staff. Would definitely recommend

  • 3/5 Marin B. 6 months ago on Google • 277 reviews
    The food and the wine were excellent in quality, I recommend the croquetas. The waiter was polite and friendly. The restaurant has a great location and seems authentic. On the negative side, the prices are a bit high. In addition, the waiting time for the food was also long. For instance, we had to wait about one hour for a portion of squid. In the end, we had to ask about the order as we were not sure if it was coming. All in all, I would recommend going there, but having in mind the points mentioned above.

    In one sentence: don't miss out. Beautiful decoration, a passionate and warm boss, a welcoming atmosphere with original music. And the kitchen. The kitchen. Each of the dishes that we had the pleasure of tasting allowed us to travel thanks to impeccable home cooking. I haven't given many 5 stars, but this establishment fully deserves it. (Ah and also +1 for the boss' repartee on some of the opinions that made us laugh)

  • 5/5 E C. 1 year ago on Google • 52 reviews
    Excellent and friendly service with owner personally attending to guests. He started this tapas restaurant because he couldn’t find good Spanish tapas in Brussels. Good for us he did!

  • 1/5 Angel de la p. 4 months ago on Google • 31 reviews
    Swindler.

  • 4/5 Elaine S. 1 year ago on Google • 25 reviews
    Very friendly staff, and delicious food! The ONLY reason we give it 4-stars is because we’re used to tapas in Barcelona but this is the best option for authentic Spanish food in Brussels and sangria! Good choice of wine too.

  • 5/5 desiree a. 5 years ago on Google • 19 reviews
    This time I ordered a fresh "rica salad" but you can also find other tasteful spanish dishes, great value for money, and cooked the traditional way. Great service and atmosphere. I highly recommend it for a tapas evening.

  • 2/5 S d. 4 months ago on Google • 15 reviews
    Really bad tortilla de patatas. Prices don’t match quality.

  • 5/5 Zenouska R. 1 year ago on Google • 11 reviews
    I very much enjoyed my experience here, the owner and the rest of the staff are incredibly friendly and chatty. The food was also really delicious, and all for a very good price. I have been to other tapas restaurants before but they do not compare. I would recommend booking beforehand - I did reserve a table prior to arriving and was glad I did, as it did seem rather busy. Overall, a really wonderful dinner.

  • 4/5 Marta A. 3 years ago on Google • 7 reviews
    Amazing Spanish restaurant, great tapas, nice and friendly waiters and great location. When you go, ask for a table outside, enjoy some good whine and tapas. I highly recommend.

    What an amazing find in Brussels! I really recommend this place to anyone who loves authentic Spanish food and wine. Excellent attention to detail by the staff and the timing between each serving was perfect. I’ll definitely be back!

  • 1/5 shaojie l. 2 years ago on Google
    This is a Spanish restaursnt ? Seriously ? Sangria taste like water, all the sauces are so watery without any flavor.

  • 4/5 Dominika D. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 David D. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Mario P. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Vinomania is currently the place where I best ate Spanish cuisine in Brussels. Fresh produce, excellent choice of wines (excellent Rioja of the house), bocadillos (sandwiches) at a great price (try the one with calamares and wings oils). really super service friendliness and efficiency. If you pass by Place Coq it is worth a visit. (Original) Vinomania é al momento il posto dove meglio ho mangiato cucina spagnola a Bruxelles. Prodotti freschi, ottima scelta di vini (ottimo il Rioja della casa), bocadillos (panini) ad ottimo prezzo (da provare quello con calamares e ali oli). Servizio davvero super per simpatia ed efficienza. Se passate per Place Coq merita una visita.

    Food was OK for those who feel "spanish morrinha"..

  • 4/5 Besjona K. 1 year ago on Google
    Good sangria, friendly service and tasty tapas. The only problem for us was that it took almost 40 minutes to get the first tapas served (even though it was cold tapas). But we had a good ecperience overall.

  • 5/5 John S. 1 year ago on Google
    This is our favorite restaurant in Brussels. Olivier and Pao are the best, and the food is as good as it gets. And it’s the best outdoor space in a charming sun-drenched square!

  • 1/5 IEH 1 year ago on Google
    Dissapointed. - Patatas bravas : potatoes were not tasty and the sauce was more a tomato soup without taste - Croquetas: very salty and prefab - the jar of tinto is small and full of lemon (18 euros :/ ) Waiters were nice ! Everything is overpriced. El Fontan in the rue haute is a much better address.

  • 5/5 Valérie D. 3 years ago on Google
    We went just before the closing of restaurants, the food was delicious, so were the wines and people are very friendly. I'll be back as soon as they reopen!

  • 5/5 Paul H. 1 year ago on Google
    Really great tapas bar/restaurant with a wide selection of hot and cold plates to try. Speed of food service was just enough to let you finish what you had and not be overwhelmed with cooling food. Front of house staff (likely the owner) was very friendly and made us feel welcome. Would highly recommend if you like tapas or just want a small bite on a nice terrace.

  • 5/5 Michael C. 1 year ago on Google
    Ate here for the first time last night and instantly added it to our list of favourite restaurants in Brussels Staff fun and friendly. Food very good indeed (Iberian pork and also anchovies both recommended). Wine list small but super.

  • 5/5 Mehdi R. 10 months ago on Google
    Great restaurant, where I go regularly. Delicious chipirones, secreto ibérico and gambas con ajjos. Olivier is very nice and always busy with clients. Dogs are allowed.

  • 5/5 Valentin B. 4 years ago on Google
    Best tapas place in Brussels! We tried several of their dishes and the quality and taste were fantastic. I can highly recommend all the sea food tapas. The place is also very cosy and the service can’t be better. We already rebooked it.

    (Translated by Google) The sausage table, very correct. Broken eggs with ham, delight. The chorizo ​​croquettes, very rich. The omelette ... friend, there you are no longer deceiving a Spanish: regulera throwing "no". But overall, good experience. (Original) La tabla de embutidos, muy correcta. Los huevos rotos con jamón, delicia. Las croquetas de chorizo, muy ricas. La tortilla... amigo, ahí ya no engañas a un español: regulera tirando a "no". Pero en general, buena experiencia.

  • 5/5 Chris C. 4 years ago on Google
    Great food and great service! I'm traveling on business and saw the positive reviews- walked to the restaurant and so glad I did- I didn't have reservations and the place was full so I took a seat outside- but it started to get chilly and the waiter offered a blanket and the owner came outside to let me know a table opened up - and moved me inside. The atmosphere was inviting and upbeat and the food was great, the wine was wonderful and the red pepper with cod was scrumptious. But the service -was outstanding, everyone was friendly, helpful and just plain great!

  • 3/5 Jabran A. 4 years ago on Google
    The food was decent but the thing which stroke me was to amount of the wine they are serving you - not even a 1/6 of the glass -especially for the demanded price. Overpriced , even for Brussels standards.

  • 4/5 Am M. 4 years ago on Google

    The delicious and amazing Spanish food (better than most part of the restaurants in Spain), the careful and perfect professional services of the waiters , and the terrace of the restaurant in Fernand Cocq square (Ixelles/Brussels) makes the dinner a unique experience

  • 5/5 Sam 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The server announces the color, I recommend you take 3 tapas no more! The tapas are very hearty dishes here! And he's right, we do not push for consumption. We managed to finish everything just right. We enjoyed the friendly and friendly atmosphere. The prices are reasonable and even sweeter if you take everything to go. Too bad I do not live in the corner ... (Original) Le serveur vous annonce la couleur, je vous recommande de prendre 3 tapas pas plus! Les tapas sont des plats très copieux ici! Et il a raison, on ne pousse pas à la consommation. On a réussi à tout finir de justesse. Nous avons apprécié l'ambiance sympathique et convivial. Les prix sont raisonnable et encore plus doux si vous prenez tout à emporter. Dommage que je n'habite pas dans le coin...

👍👍 How in the world this shop doesn't have 5 stars. Come on people. One of the best in Brussels. It tops almost all the list in any internet blogs you may visit for the top10 Frites in Belgium and it deserves it. Taste is very crispy on the outside.
